Stupid mouse! cried Nanuq, giving the offending rodent a swift kick that sent it careening into the rock wall. A tiny snap announced the breaking of one or more bones. The Pupus fell upon it and ended its life then, putting it out of its misery.

He stooped to inspect the tiny bleeding bite mark on his toe, then gave his paw a gentle shake. Turning back to the commons with a grumble, Nanuq scanned for signs of more mice or rats, but it seemed the area was clear now. Good. He was getting really sick of these never-ending vermin he had to take care of as punishment for disobeying Germanicus.

Stupid Imperator, he grumbled under his breath, picking up the corpse and carrying it at a deliberately slow tread toward the nearest cache. No sense finishing too quickly. He would just have to go back home if he did, where he would be confined for the rest of the day, and while that afforded him a lot of time to do nothing at all, he was growing incredibly bored with his whole life and routine.

Stupid Mereo.
